A modular suction cup that fits most machines and that can
be optimized for handling almost all materials. piGRIPTM’s
five different lip types ensure the right hardness/softness
and sealing capability for your material. Combined with the
firm bellows, piGRIPTM is stable enough to handle faster
accelerations and more high speed lifts as compared to
traditional cups.

With traditional single durometer cups,
where the lips and bellows are made of
the same material, you either have to
compromise on the grip or the machine
handling speed. That is now history
with piGRIPTM, the efficient automation
innovation from Piab.

Thousands of suction cups ready to improve your machine
A unique modular suction cup concept with individually optimized parts for gripping,
lifting and height compensation.
A large selection of fittings
makes piGRIPTM cups ready to
fit new machines and easy to
retrofit existing cups.
One support per size works as a gateway for
all bellows and lips (flat cups).
Firm and Stable 1- and 3- folded bellows allows
for faster machine speeds. Thin-wall design makes
them faster to compress using less force and
energy. The strength of the material increases lifting
capacity between 30-50% compared to similar
conventional cups.
A low micron filter disc inside the bellows traps
dust and particles increasing system reliability.
Get an excellent grip on almost anything
with the right lip for your application. Choose
standard lips from 60o shore to extremely
flexible, soft lips in 30o shore. Even foam
lips for objects which are difficult to grip with
traditional cups.

Superior performance with individually optimized parts.
Standard lip (S)
– for versatile use
4The green standard lip is suitable for
relatively even surfaces on sealed materials.
It has extra wear resistance.
4The blue standard lip is recommended
if the surface is more uneven or rough,
e.g. textured plastic parts. FDA approved
material recommended for food handling.
Flexible lip (FX)
– with extra sealing capability
4The flexible lips are suitable for surface
leaking materials (wrinkled or textured) and
porous materials, such as corrugated paper.
4Both the blue and yellow lips have FDA
approved material and are recommended
for food handling.
Foam lip (FLI)
– for difficult to handle objects
4Suitable when conventional lips are not
sealing enough.
4Can replace mechanical grippers.
4A lip holder excludes the need for glue,
worn lips are easy replaced.

4Firm/stable bellows allows for high

4Low spring force with thin-wall design,
makes it easy to compress and return,
leading to faster evacuations and speeds.
4Extra high lifting force compared to
conventional cups in the same size. The
stiff bellows retains its shape even at deep
vacuum levels.
